Local Knowledge

Hardwood Floors in Dover's Homes

Dover's historic district around Legislative Mall and The Green contains some of Delaware's oldest residential properties — Federal and Georgian-style homes from the 1700s and 1800s with original wide-plank heart pine or oak floors that are essentially irreplaceable. These require the most delicate approach, which is exactly what our no-sanding method provides. Beyond the historic core, the postwar subdivisions of Rodney Village and Edgehill Gardens are full of ranch and split-level homes from the 1950s–1970s with 2¼" strip oak that wears well but needs periodic refinishing. Newer communities near Route 13 have a mix of engineered and solid hardwood.

I have a home near The Green with original pine floors from the 1800s. I was terrified to touch them. The team was incredibly careful — they assessed everything first, explained exactly what they would do, and the result was stunning. The floors are preserved and beautiful.

Common Questions

FAQ — Floor Refinishing in Dover

Can you refinish original wide-plank pine floors in Dover historic homes?

Yes — wide-plank historic floors are a specialty. We are extremely careful with older floors that may be thinner or more fragile than modern strip flooring. Our no-sanding process is especially well-suited for antique floors where preserving thickness is critical.

How far do you travel to serve Kent County from your base?

Dover is approximately 28 miles from our base in Townsend — a straightforward drive. We serve all of Kent County with no additional travel fees for most residential projects.

Do you offer floor refinishing for commercial properties in Dover?

Yes — government offices, law firms, restaurants, and commercial spaces in Dover are all within our service area. Our dust-free process is particularly valuable for occupied commercial spaces where closing down for traditional sanding isn't practical.

What sheen options are available for floors in Dover, DE?

We offer gloss, semi-gloss, satin, and matte finishes. For historic homes in Dover's downtown district, satin and matte are most popular as they preserve the authentic look of antique floors while adding durable protection.
